How do you practice your 90-day currency?

[CO_Skymaster]

I was practicing my 90-day currency for VFR daytime to take up passengers and I follow my checklist including cycling the gear when staying in the pattern. I like having retractable gear, but there is always a little anxiety when I retract it and I think will it come back down at my landing. I started thinking and wanted to ask if all of you cycle the gear in the pattern when practicing or does anyone leave it down in anticipation of the next landing. I think of the 90-day currency in a specific aircraft should practice your skill including every step you would follow for takeoff and landing.
